Sure, but there are also plenty of cases where you don't care. Why make everyone everywhere bother with HTTPS? If you want to protect the user, as a browser, go ahead and yell or block access, but only when the user's data is at risk. Blocking access to my page because someone might have misrepresented what I put there, and thus forcing me to deal with HTTPS? That's more than a little excessive IMO.
